Flournoy (coach's decision) is inactive Sunday against the Browns, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports. Flournoy, who is listed as No. 6 on the Cowboys' wide receiver depth chart will be the odd man out from their receiving corps Week 1. The 24-year-old was selected in the sixth round by Dallas in the 2024 Draft and he'll now look to Week 2 against the Saints for his next opportunity to suit up.

Flournoy (coach's decision) is inactive Sunday against the Browns, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports. Flournoy, who is listed as No. 6 on the Cowboys' wide receiver depth chart will be the odd man out from their receiving corps Week 1. The 24-year-old was selected in the sixth round by Dallas in the 2024 Draft and he'll now look to Week 2 against the Saints for his next opportunity to suit up.
Flournoy caught all three of his targets for 30 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's preseason loss to the Chargers. The 2024 sixth-round pick hauled in a TD in each of the last two preseason games, which may have been enough to lock him into a spot on the 53-man roster. Flournoy isn't likely to see much volume in the regular season, but with CeeDee Lamb still holding out and Brandin Cooks (knee) banged up, Dallas' depth at wideout could be tested early in the year.
Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy said Sunday that Flournoy is day-to-day with a knee injury, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports. McCarthy added that Flournoy issue is not "classified as anything serious," according to Nicole Hutchison of the Cowboys' official team site. The 6-foot-1 wide receiver out of Southeast Missouri State was selected in the sixth round after a dazzling performance as the 2024 NFL Combine, and he'll likely compete for one of the final spots in Dallas' receiver room this training camp. Top wideout Ceedee Lamb is also holding out of training camp while awaiting a contract extension, so Flournoy's asbsence should open up some valuable opportunities for other fringe roster players like Racey McMath and Jalen Moreno-Cropper.
